Are you in Fort Collins, CO or the surrounding areas and seeking gentle hands-on care for musculoskeletal or neurological issues such as headaches, migraines, jaw tension, Trauma, PTSD, sleep issues or other stress-related conditions?
What is Craniosacral Therapy or Sacral Cranial Massage?
From a biological perspective, craniosacral therapy works with the subtle rhythmic movement within the craniosacral system, which includes the ebb and flow of the cerebral spinal fluid that surrounds the brain, spinal nerves, membranes and spinal cord. The stresses and traumas of life can result in disruption of the cerebral fluid wave and lead to musculoskeletal, neurological, visceral, emotional, or energetic imbalances.
Using specific hand positions, I provide delicate, supportive touch to various parts of your body and head, tuning into this rhythmic motion. By listening to your body’s unique expression of this rhythm and gently encouraging it to find balance, the body’s natural ability to self-heal and self-regulate is restored.
At the level of the nervous system, working with the cranial rhythm helps normalize sympathetic nerve activity, which is often increased in chronic pain patients. Following from this reduced nerve overactivity, muscle tension and pain are reduced.
Craniosacral therapy is a gentle bodywork modality that serves as the interface between the physical and energetic layers of the body.
A return to alignment with the cerebral spinal wave allows the body to re-establish a place of balance and health.
